Hackoverflow 1.0 was Chandigarh University’s first-ever national hackathon, pioneered by our co-founders Ayonika Dey and Karan Bhargav. It was an official event of the university’s tech festival and was one of the mega-events.

The building blocks of the community were established with Amit Kumar Mishra, who proved his capabilities by organizing the AIT day, which is now an annual event for the Apex Institute of Technology. Karan Bhargav was appointed as the Director, Ayonika Dey as the President, and Harshiv as the Vice-President. The team began working on pan-India outreach and the Campus Ambassador program was brought to execution.

Despite the pandemic, society has organized a plethora of events. We kicked off the streak with the much-anticipated Membership Program, followed by Hack 1-on-1. The new recruitments pumped up the society and organized Genesis 1.0. Later on, the Hackoverflow Society organized the Freshers’ Carnival – a fun event for newcomers to get to know each other.

In 2023, the society continued its streak of impactful gatherings. From celebrating HS Day to hosting Tech Confluence and Collabcode Carnival, each event fostered collaboration and learning. Hack 1-on-1 capped off the year with its engaging format, ensuring another successful chapter for our community.
